• Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to the boil. • Peel potato and cut into large chunks. • Cut capsicum into bite-sized chunks. • Grate carrot. • Finely chop garlic. • Drain and rinse lentils. TIP: Save time and get more fibre by leaving the potato unpeeled!
• Cook potato in the boiling water until easily pierced with a fork, 12-15 minutes. • Drain potato, then return to pan. • Add the plant-based butter and plant-based milk. Season generously with salt. Mash until smooth.
• While potato is cooking, heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. • Cook capsicum and carrot, stirring, until softened, 4-5 minutes. • Add garlic, mild Caribbean jerk seasoning and tomato paste. Cook until fragrant, 2 minutes. • Only use 1/2 the lentils. Stir in drained lentils, baby spinach leaves, the water, coconut milk and vegetable stock powder (see ingredients). Simmer until thickened, 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, then remove from heat. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. Cook pork mince, breaking up with a spoon, until just browned, 3-4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl to rest.
• Preheat grill to high. • Transfer lentil mixture & pork mince to a baking dish. • Top with the mash, running through it with a fork to create an uneven surface. Drizzle with olive oil. TIP: The oil will help the top brown under the grill!
• Grill pie, until lightly browned, 8-10 minutes. TIP: Grills cook fast, so keep an eye on the pie!
• Divide Caribbean lentil, pork and veggie pie between plates. • Tear over coriander to serve. Enjoy!
